JOHN DEERE FORESTSIGHT John Deere ForestSight delivers three primary benefits: 1. Machine optimization Apply the machine and operations data provided through John Deere ForestSight to increase productivity and efficiency. 2. Uptime optimization John Deere ForestSight integrates machine data, prognostics, and diagnostics tools with dealer support and parts availability to drive machine uptime. Integrated parts and service solution packages meet the unique needs of your specific applications. 3. Jobsite optimization From nearly any location, you can see when and where your machines are working, how many cycles they are completing, and how much time operators spend out of the cab. This up-to-theminute data lets you manage your production more efficiently. Optimize machines Today more than ever before, you need to get the most logs to the landing for each gallon or liter of fuel you burn. John Deere ForestSight gives you visibility to the efficiency of your machines. Your John Deere dealer can even analyze the data for you and make recommendations for improvements. For example: Identify unused machines so they can be redeployed. Compare fuel-burn rate across multiple machines. See time spent idling, to reduce unnecessary fuel consumption. View engine load and fuel consumption, to match machine size to the job. Set up virtual fences and authorized hours of use, to improve security. Locate and get directions to your machines, to save significant time. Combined with the expertise of your dealer, John Deere ForestSight delivers answers, not just data.

MACHINE-HEALTH PROGNOSTICS Advanced healthcare for your machines John Deere ForestSight s machine-health prognostics evaluate machine data and think through maintenance protocols before prescribing downtime cures that will keep your fleet and your bottom line healthy. How do we do it? Advanced proprietary rules logic analyzes your machines fluids to search for irregularities and their causes and solutions. We also combine JDLink and machine-inspection data. All three data points are examined together, and the exclusive condition-based rules-engine logic points to the problem, measures how critical it is, and provides solutions to resolve it before downtime occurs. A virtual fleet manager When you utilize this John Deere ForestSight benefit, your dealer will receive machine-health alerts. So even if you don t have JDLink set to send you alerts and don t access its data often, your dealer will know immediately when something needs attention. You can focus on your work and not the health of your fleet. John Deere ForestSight s exclusive machine-health prognostics process: JDLINK DATA FLUID ANALYSIS INSPECTION RESULTS RULES ENGINE The condition-based rules engine s exclusive logic analyzes the inputs, identifies problems, and measures how critical they are. A machine-health solution is generated. MACHINE-HEALTH SOLUTION The system delivers solutions to the dealer or customer via email or work order to resolve issues before they cause downtime.
REMOTE DIAGNOSTICS AND PROGRAMMING Faster, less costly repairs Three real-world examples of how John Deere ForestSight significantly optimizes uptime: What if your dealer could warn you of problems with your machine and initiate solutions without visiting the jobsite and charging you for a technician s travel time? That s what you get with John Deere ForestSight s exclusive remote diagnostics and programming. Your Deere dealer can help you reduce downtime by accessing and resetting diagnostic trouble codes and recording performance readings remotely. EXAMPLE Remote performance recordings If your machine malfunctions at 1,000 rpm, for example, your Deere dealer can use remote diagnostics to record particular machine parameters at that rpm. The technician doesn t need to be onsite. And readings can be taken at full machine functionality, eliminating downtime. If parts are needed to fix the problem assessed via remote diagnostics, the technician arrives onsite with the right parts without an initial trip to the field. Remote software updates Using remote programming, your machine can also receive wireless software updates, forestalling a technician having to come to the jobsite with laptop in hand. Your fleet-management and -maintenance team gain twice the bench strength when your dealer and your machines are connected through remote diagnostics and programming. The advantages to owning John Deere equipment just got a lot more compelling. 1 JOHN DEERE ForestSight sends clutch temperature alert to dealer from jobsite. 2 Dealer accesses JDLINK website, reviews machine-performance data, and suspects the problem may be resulting from excessive inching pedal use. 3 Dealer contacts customer and makes REMOTE DIAGNOSTICS connection absence of additional transmission-related codes confirms that machine is healthy. Dealer clears code. 4 DEALER confirms overall machine health is fine but advises the customer to instruct his operator not to ride the inching pedal. RESULTS: Dealer detects improper machine operation with the potential to harm the transmission over time without a trip to the jobsite. 10 11
JOHN DEERE FORESTSIGHT EXAMPLE EXAMPLE 1 Dealer receives a series of engine derate alerts from JOHN DEERE ForestSight. 1 Customer contacts the dealer to report a malfunction with the bump shifter. 2 Dealer contacts the customer, who confirms the machine is sluggish. 3 Dealer matches the derate symptoms and diagnostic code with a service bulletin that identifies the problem and requires a software update. 4 DEALER deploys an Electronic Control Unit (ECU) payload via REMOTE PRO- GRAMMING to update software and resolve the problem. RESULTS: Dealer prevents downtime by correctly diagnosing and repairing the problem remotely. 2 Dealer technician establishes REMOTE DIAGNOSTICS connection and records transmission data from the Transmission Control Unit (TCU) during machine operation. After analyzing the data, the dealer determines the TCU needs to be replaced. JDLINK records driving directions after locating the machine. 3 DEALER technician arrives with new TCU in hand for onsite repair. RESULTS: Dealer sends a technician to the jobsite with the correct part for quick repair, avoiding an initial timeconsuming diagnostic trip to the jobsite.
Your dealer works for you John Deere ForestSight technologies help optimize your machines, your uptime, and your jobsites, ultimately leading to improved profits. But don t let technology scare you. Because your John Deere dealer employs a technology specialist who can help you enjoy the benefits of John Deere ForestSight with as much or as little involvement as you desire. Your dealer technology specialist can: Help with telematics and prognostics program enrollment and activation. Monitor incoming data from telematics systems and communicate those results to you in the way you want, such as documented reports, regular meetings, or as needed. Interpret telematics data to suggest changes to your operation, maximizing productivity and efficiency. Analyze prognostics to recommend preventative maintenance that will head off more expensive future downtime. Utilize remote-diagnostic and -repair capabilities to lower costs and improve uptime. Share data with other dealership departments so they can better serve you. Quote customized preventative-maintenance programs to help you manage costs. Provide training if you wish to monitor and act on data in-house. Coordinate implementation of an Application Programming Interface (API) for utilizing telematics data in your business system. Whether you prefer to dig into the details or operate handsoff, your dealer s technology specialist can ensure that your John Deere ForestSight experience is exactly how you want it.
